Problems via CCleaner Registry cleanup in Windows 8.1

Gang I am a tech - work for small businesses. Big fan of all Piriform tools.

I see a problem I believe is due to CCleaner, current edition, Registry cleanup tool, on Windows 8.1 running on a Samsung NP365E5C with AMD chipset. After running the Registry cleaner and shutting down, on the next bootup got a handful of Windows Errors [Event log] and a black background instead of the Theme on the desktop [not using the Tiles Interface but Desktop]

If no one else is seeing this, then I am mistaken as to the source of the issues. Given that the system is just in pre-deployment, not using it much, it looked like simple "Cause/Effect" case.

Welcome to the forum.

current edition

That is never a valid definition.

What was "current" when you typed may be superseded before it is read,

plus we cannot be sure that you are aware of the new release yesterday.

Did a previous version of CCleaner work without giving these problems ?

What version numbers cause no problems, and which version numbers cause the problems ?

First, I am sorry you have had issues.

Sounds like you cleaned every entry ccleaner suggested. This is very dangerous behavior as you have now discovered. You may need to refresh your windows.
